The letter is signed by Joni Hatanmaa Partner / Attorney-at-Law who says my IP was used to download a copyright movie of Scanbox Entertainment A/S last year December 2015.<br /><br />Surprisingly, on the same day and time - as mentioned in the letter - I was in another city visiting my family friends to spend my holidays. I wonder how it is possible that I have been accused guilty and what should I do now?

I sent the following email to them, lets see how this goes.<br /><br />Dear Hedman Partners,<br /><br />Today I received from you what appears to be a demand for a large sum of money. I don’t speak Finnish but I gather you are under the mistaken impression that I have downloaded something from the internet called Black Sails. Your claim that I am personally responsible for this based solely on an IP address is something I must dispute. I have not done as you say I have and I feel quite shocked by your threats of escalating this if I do not pay your demands.<br /><br />As an IT specialist I feel I must point out that I have in the past had an open wireless network, and I am also aware that even so-called secure wifi can be hacked. I have also used and experimented with TOR networking and as such other internet users data will have passed through and exited from my network. However the IP address for my home came to be flagged as downloading the alleged files it was not by my doing.<br /><br />Please do not bother me again with this demand, like I said, the letter you sent in Finnish is beyond my understanding but it feels a lot like blackmail. I am no legal expert but as I have done nothing wrong I feel the law will be on my side if you try to take this further.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624439462792336852.post-41670828021261086442016-04-06T15:45:21.870+03:002016-04-06T15:45:21.870+03:00Hello,

They claim the infringement was more than a year ago.

I'd say it's improbable that there are any real consequences if you just ignore the letter. That's just my opinion based on my own estimations on the profitability of their letter campaign and the time and resource costs of them having to go to court.<br /><br />Check out http://kiristyskirje.fi<br />Google translate link here: https://translate.google.fi/translate?sl=fi&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=fi&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fkiristyskirje.fi&edit-text=&act=urlSebastian Mäkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07774408117856478941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624439462792336852.post-60873332726481681632015-12-10T19:48:48.625+02:002015-12-10T19:48:48.625+02:00Hi Sebastian.

So although this posts were made more than year ago, maybe you are still around and can point me out were to follow with it. I just got in my mail a letter from this Adultia Oy telling I should pay 600 euros until the end of December or I will be take into investigation an most probably to court. How to check if it really proceeds? Should I contact the police? Do you think is that some kind of trap, embezzlement scheme? Should I just pretend it never happened? I am quite scared cause that amount of money is almost my full month incoming. And I do not speak finnish so I coul not even understand the letter without help of a friend. Where can I get some support to go through this situation? Thanks in advance man!
